“Fernando Felicevich, the agent of Arturo Vidal, arrives tonight and has a number of offers to present Juventus. The most important it seems is that of Manchester United who are willing to guarantee Juventus €60million for the midfielder.” The report claims.

United currently have a number of midfielders currently on the books and adding Vidal would suggest that Louis Van Gaal may need to offload one or two.

Despite the Old Trafford outfit being midfield heavy, there are still a number of question marks over the quality needed to compete at the top level and bringing in the Juventus man would certainly go some way to rectifying that.

The report goes on to say that the 27-year-old is happy to stay in Turin but would like his wages increasing to €8million a year – the same amount which United are said to have proposed.
